OK. Even though you only gave me part of the paragraph, I read that much, and I think I'm ready to select the correct answer now. What are the choices ?
Answer:
The answer is given below
Step-by-step explanation:
Z score is used to measure by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by the formula:

For the male:
μ = 3259.8 g, σ = 869.7 g
Hence for a male who weighs 1600 g, the z score is:

For the female:
μ = 3000.9 g, σ = 550.8 g
Hence for a female who weighs 1600 g, the z score is:

Since the z score for the male is z= -1.91 and the z score for the female is z= -2.54 the male has the weight that is more extreme.
A) 8/40 = 1/5
b) 12/40 or 6/20
c) 26/40 or 13/20
Step-by-step explanation:
So in the equation given, y = 2x - 3
you substitute x for whats given in the table in the x column.
Example
In the graph the first number under the x colum is -1.
y = 2x - 3 in the equation you take out x and put -1.
So now the equation becomes y = 2 × -1 - 3.
Using bedmas to solve the question you should get -5
Which now means y = -5
To plot the point now x would be -1 and y would be -5 (-1, -5)
Same thing for the second number in the x Column.
y = 2 × 1 - 3 which equals -1
To plot it
x = 1 y = -1. (1, -1)
And for the last number 3.
Agai. You substitute x for 3 which makes the equation y = 2 × 3 - 3
this gives you 3 and to plot it
x would be 3 and y would be 3
When we have exponents multiplied with the same base we add them so 5^5*5^10=5^15
